Good, but not great [Posted on 2000-09-09]
This pen will take you a looong time to get used to. It was a good hour before I could scan anything intelligible onto the screen. Also, even once you do get the hang of it, there will be lots of capilization errors. Still, this tool will prove invaluable once you learn how to use it.
Still a gadget. [Posted on 2000-10-03]
I had high hopes for this little scanner. It is certainly not bad, but it has a number of annoying problems. The learning curve can be a bit steep (at least an hour before you're comfortable scanning basic text, saving it to a file and preparing it for download). As for downloading it to your PC for editing, storage or printing, that requires either a IrDA port(most laptops have one) or on most desktops, an add-on serial device or USB device. My impression is that it will wind up in the drawer sometime soon, relegated to that dark corner that 'early adopters' often fill to the brim.
